Birth Haven, Ireland's first birth centre, is a midwife led, holistic health centre for the expecting family that is looking for funds to become a reality. Check their campaign and read their story! https://t.co/Ue57qUGx9R @NeighborMidwife
@IWCare How can brown water be safe to drink? What is causing the discoloration and how has it been determined to be safe? When we rang, Irish Water had no knowledge of any repairs in the area. What has changed?
Came across this recently on the internet when we mentioned one to one care of a dedicated midwife helped all three of our homebirths feel strong: why are people threatened by vaginal/homebirth being successfully achieved? https://t.co/roxei9106F
And yet this is exactly what will happen. Legislation will have to be very clear and those willing to follow it will need protection from abuse @SimonHarrisTD https://t.co/ueuJ4iOGjM
The idea of a woman in crisis sitting in front of her doctor & her doctor refusing to refer flies in face of care & compassion & is not reflective of doctors I know. People spoke & want women to be cared for. Conscientious objection -yes. No referral or info -no @morningireland
By opening an independent centre where midwives can operate outside the hospital system for truly midwife led care, instead of in name only, overseen by an OB as is currently the case. #midwifery#birthhaven https://t.co/HVA27kl2Ra
@NeighborMidwife It's unfortunate that this patronising attitude is so prevalent in the #IrishMatExp. How can we change the demoralising and domineering attitude of those behind the over medicalisation of birth.
Call me a birthzilla if you want if it means I get individualised maternity care. Can't think of another situation where I'm judged negatively for asking for something that's so personal to me. Of course I would have a strong idea of what is right of me. https://t.co/d7wmX5MXIR
Overwhelmed and so grateful for a previously unimaginable three days with women who survived the Magdalene Laundries. What strength they've given us to continue to work towards truth, justice, reparation & non-recurrence #Ireland#DublinHonoursMagdalenes https://t.co/XK78ByuxNq
